Dear Colleagues, Alumni and Students,

For our next guest talk, Monica Kohli (Senior Lawyer, Gard UK Ltd.) will be speaking about the field of Maritime Law, especially in light of the legal implications of the recent incident involving the blockage in the Suez Canal. This talk is planned for April 15, 2021 (6 pm IST onwards).

You will be receiving a Webex meeting invitation in a bit. Please find the abstract for the talk and the speaker's description copied below.

“The World of Maritime Law”

After the grounding of the MV Ever Given in the Suez Canal on 23 March, 2021, blocking a trade route that accounts for 12% of global trade, and costing about 9 Billion USD, the world paid more attention to the hidden world of shipping that brings food to your table and energy to your homes. This seminar will discuss the incident and the legal world behind the incident, the arrest of the vessel, jurisdiction and what happens in the wider legal shipping community and similar maritime incidents in the past.
